<bugzilla at FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to pkg at FreeBSD.org:
Bug 213599: ports-mgmt/pkg regression: pkg audit -F unable to fetch vuln.xml in
a jail
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213599



--- Description ---
On a fully patched FreeBSD 10.3 system with a few jails (also up-to-date),
pkg-1.8.7_3 works as expected. After updating to pkg-1.9.1, it is no longer
possible to update the vulnerability list with 'pkg audit -F' if this command
is issued from a jail. Running it from the host system works as expected.
Force-reinstalling pkg-1.8.7_3 fixes the issue.

This is what happens on the host system:
